The Catholic Church has not left anything out of The Bible, they have preserved it intact. However, Martin Luther dropped a number of Old Testament books because they presented information that was contrary to his teachings.

Catholic AnswerWhen Martin Luther made up his own religion, he could not base it on the Church that Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ, founded, as there is only one Church, according to Our Blessed Lord, and there can't be another, so he decided to base his new "church" on the Bible. Unfortunately he found out, as the Jews in the first century found out, that the Bible supports the Catholic Church as the only Church, so he proceeded to throw out books that he didn't agree with. For the Old Testament he took the Jewish Masoretic text which they had made up after they denied Christianity and it has six to seven less books than the Septuagint, which is the Old Testament that Our Blessed Lord used, and the Church has continued to use since then. He ran into trouble in the New Testament as other "reformers" refused to go along with him throwing whole books out and rewriting some passages in the books that remained. So the Catholic Bible still uses all the books that were found in the Septuagint version of the Old Testament, the version that Our Blessed Lord used. The overwhelming majority of quotes in the New Testament are from that version.Add your answer:

How are the Hebrew and the Greek and the King James bible different from each other?
A quick look at the names of the sacred Jewish books implies that they constitute the O.T. and are the same thing. (Beyond the O.T., the Christian bible has many additional books.)However, there are some important differences. One difference is that the Jewish Bible (the Tanakh) is only in the original Hebrew. Any translation, whether done by Jews or Gentiles, is, at best, no more than an indication of what the Tanakh is saying. Many verses teach us a number of things.Another difference is that the Christian Old Testament may contain a few books that are not in the Tanakh (such as the books of Judith and Sirach).

What is the difference between the Torah and the King James Bible?
The Torah is part of the Tanakh (Jewish Bible). The Torah is the Five Books of Moses, while the rest of the Tanakh contains prophetic books such as Joshua, Isaiah, Job, and more. The canon of the Tanakh was sealed by a Sanhedrin called the Men of the Great Assembly, which included the last of the Jewish prophets, some 24 centuries ago. The Christian Bible contains the Tanakh (in translation) plus additional books. This includes the New Testament (the Gospels, Acts, and Epistles) and could also include some of the Deuterocanonical books (like Tobit, Esdras, Baruch, Sirach, etc.).
